Customer Reviews

"This is NOT fine dining. This is just fine southern food. If you want fancy food go to Hog and Bones. If you want down home then this is your place . The sandwiches are pressed in a panini style."

"My wife and I were driving between Savannah and Bainbridge and stopped here for lunch as it was on the way and had good reviews! Thank goodness they were opened on July 4th as we got a genuine taste of that great southern hospitality. The two ladies were lovely and welcomed us with open arms, greeting us with enthusiastic smiles. They know they can cook, and they can surely back it up! If you're ever in this area, definitely stop by as it's worth the stop! We ordered the #1 Jumbo and a 1/2 slab of ribs, and both were absolutely amazing! I loved the fact that the Jumbo BBQ Sandwich gets smashed (it's a BBQ Pulled Pork sandwich) which is generally a messy ordeal but because it's smashed everything is super neatly tucked together and nothing falls out of the sandwich!! The ribs had just the right amount of bite but also easily fell off the bone, which you can eat using any of the 4 homemade sauces (original, sweet, and hot bbq or mustard)!! They make their lemonade and sweet tea in-house, and we tried their sweet tea, and that was equally as great! We could see the locals love this place cause there was a constant flow of customers and phone orders coming in as we sat at the restaurant. Again, 10/10 if you're in the area and want some good ol' southern BBQ, this is the spot!"

"I asked for a local barbecue place and was told to go here and was very impressed. A whole "lotta" sandwich for under $10.. Next time I'm back up in the area I am returning."

- Jordan J.

"Super casual, bare bones place where you can get one of the best bbq sandwiches I've ever had and that's coming from someone that's been hitting up bbq festivals around Georgia all month long! The jumbo pulled pork sandwich (we ordered extra mild sauce) was so flavorful. What's unique about this place is that the sandwiches are pressed; so you get a loaded bbq sandwich with sauce that's compressed, every single bite of that sandwich was overflowing with sauce and pork. HEAVEN."

- Marilyn G.
